Reference 116659SABR fuses one of the world’s most iconic and quintessential tool watches (worn by the likes of James Bond) with the luxurious and delicate art of gem-setting, representing a synthesis of both form and function. White gold, diamonds and sapphires interlace, interacting to produce an aesthetic affect that is visually arresting, attractive and striking to the eye – this watch is certainly one that will not go unnoticed. To distinguish itself further with other Rolex Submariner, one can notice that the depth rating "1000ft = 300m" on the dial of this luxurious Submariner is missing. Accompanied with the complete set of certificate, sales tag and presentation box in extremely good condition, we are delighted to offer the first example to appear at Christie's.
